Why Claude AI is Interesting 🌿
by Robito Chatwin

Some people see AI as the enemy. There is always new technology that causes push back. For me, AI is just a tool:

a) like the printing press, calculator, ATM cash machines, the SatNav, and the internet, these changed our jobs, our skillsets, and our thinking, but they are not inherently evil.

b) like email - when we discovered all our emails are scanned by providers - or laptops and mobile phones - that require us to accept data collection - we all use them now.

BUT inner authority comes when we use these tools consciously.

Enter Claude AI for discussion:

Claude AI is an AI model (like ChatGPT) created by Anthropic.

Anthropic received a letter from the US Department of War confirming that "we have been designated as a supply chain risk to America’s national security."

It applies to the use of Claude as a direct part of contracts with the Department of War.

Following the Secretary of War announcing a deal between the Pentagon and OpenAI, Anthropic states:

"We do not believe, and have never believed, that it is the role of Anthropic or any private company to be involved in operational decision-making—that is the role of the military.

We have tried in good faith to reach an agreement with the Department of War, making clear that we support all lawful uses of AI for national security aside from two exceptions..

fully autonomous weapons and mass domestic surveillance."

Food for thought and debate:

First, it suggests the US military is relying a lot on private companies for AI technology rather than their own internal systems.

Second, it reminds us that the integrity of a company can be supported by us (or not), eg. using companies that offer de-googled phones and encrypted email.

Third, it highlights the question: what are we using AI for? (tip: we can ask AI to give us an interpretation of our dreams which is very useful for personal development).

The military is using it to strategise "fully autonomous weapons and mass domestic surveillance."

BUT if the military can strategise total world domination, AI can also be used to strategise total world liberation.

Interesting times. Interesting debate. The problem with AI is not AI. The technology is here. How we consciously choose to use it (or not) matters.
